Genesis 33
1 Now Jacob looked up and saw Esau coming toward him with four hundred men. So he divided the children among Leah, Rachel, and the two maidservants.
А Јаков подигавши очи своје погледа, а то Исав иде, и четири стотине људи с њим. И раздели децу уз Лију и уз Рахиљу и уз две робиње.
2 He put the maidservants and their children in front, Leah and her children next, and Rachel and Joseph at the rear.
И намести напред робиње и њихову децу, па Лију и њену децу за њима, а најпосле Рахиљу и Јосифа.
3 But Jacob himself went on ahead and bowed to the ground seven times as he approached his brother.
А сам прође напред, и поклони се до земље седам пута докле дође до брата свог.
4 Esau, however, ran to him and embraced him, threw his arms around his neck, and kissed him. And they both wept.
А Исав притрча преда њ и загрли га и паде му око врата и целива га, и обојица се заплакаше,
5 When Esau looked up and saw the women and children, he asked, “Who are these with you?” Jacob answered, “These are the children God has graciously given your servant.”
И Исав подигавши очи угледа жене и децу, па рече: Ко су ти оно? А Јаков рече: Деца, коју Бог милостиво дарова слузи твом.
6 Then the maidservants and their children approached and bowed down.
И приступише робиње с децом својом, и поклонише се.
7 Leah and her children also approached and bowed down, and then Joseph and Rachel approached and bowed down.
Потом приступи и Лија и деца њена, и поклонише се; а најпосле приступи Јосиф и Рахиља, и поклонише се.
8 “What do you mean by sending this whole company to meet me?” asked Esau. “To find favor in your sight, my lord,” Jacob answered.
А Исав рече: Шта ће ти читава војска она коју сретох? А он рече: Да нађем милост пред господарем својим.
9 “I already have plenty, my brother,” Esau replied. “Keep what belongs to you.”
А Исав рече: Има, брате, у мене доста; нека теби шта је твоје.
10 But Jacob insisted, “No, please! If I have found favor in your sight, then receive this gift from my hand. For indeed, I have seen your face, and it is like seeing the face of God, since you have received me favorably.
А Јаков рече: Не; ако сам сада нашао милост пред тобом, прими дар из моје руке, јер видех лице твоје као да видех лице Божје, тако си ме лепо дочекао.
11 Please accept my gift that was brought to you, because God has been gracious to me and I have all I need.” So Jacob pressed him until he accepted.
Прими дар мој, који ти је доведен; јер ме је обилато обдарио Бог, и имам свега. И навали на њ, те прими.
12 Then Esau said, “Let us be on our way, and I will go ahead of you.”
После рече Исав: Хајде да идемо, ићи ћу и ја с тобом.
13 But Jacob replied, “My lord knows that the children are frail, and I must care for sheep and cattle that are nursing their young. If they are driven hard for even a day, all the animals will die.
А Јаков му рече: Зна господар мој да су ова деца нејака, и имам оваца и крава дојилица, па ако их устерам један дан, погинуће ми све стадо.
14 Please let my lord go ahead of his servant. I will continue on slowly, at a comfortable pace for the livestock and children, until I come to my lord at Seir.”
Него господар мој нека иде пред слугом својим, а ја ћу полако ићи, колико могу деца и стока, докле дођем ка господару свом у Сир.
15 “Let me leave some of my people with you,” Esau said. But Jacob replied, “Why do that? Let me find favor in the sight of my lord.”
А Исав рече: А оно да ти оставим неколико људи што су са мном. А он рече: На шта? Дај да нађем милост пред господарем својим.
16 So that day Esau started on his way back to Seir,
И тако Исав врати се исти дан својим путем у Сир.
17 but Jacob went on to Succoth, where he built a house for himself and shelters for his livestock; that is why the place was called Succoth.
А Јаков отиде у Сокот, и онде начини себи кућу а стоци својој начини стаје; зато назва оно место Сокот.
18 After Jacob had come from Paddan-aram, he arrived safely at the city of Shechem in the land of Canaan, and he camped just outside the city.
После дође Јаков здраво у град Сихем у земљи хананској, вративши се из Падан-Арама, и намести се према граду.
19 And the plot of ground where he pitched his tent, he purchased from the sons of Hamor, Shechem’s father, for a hundred pieces of silver.
И купи комад земље, где разапе шатор свој, од синова Емора оца Сихемовог за сто новаца.
20 There he set up an altar and called it El-Elohe-Israel.
И начини онде жртвеник, и назва га: Силни Бог Израиљев.
